As soon as the Human Emperor Banner came out, I became the Lord of the Old Ones

Chapter 154 Silver Moon Meteor
Since leaving the Kuangtie Club half a month ago, the controversy surrounding Chu Zhifeng has never subsided.

The Shattered Star Club invested heavily and fueled the fire, publishing news about Chu Zhifeng in major media outlets in Dawn City every day.

Even Chu Zhifeng's daily training sessions are amazing.

The scope extends to a deep dive into the complicated relationship between Chu Zhifeng and Xiong Tieshan, a relationship marked by a master-disciple entanglement.

They even went so far as to sacrifice the feelings of "Golden Boy" Carlos, creating a controversy over "who is the number one ace of the Shattered Star Club".

As the third-place finisher in last year's Dawn Cup, Chu Zhifeng already had a large number of supporters.

The comprehensive and intensive publicity, coupled with his rather rugged image, has led to a surge in his popularity, making him just as popular as Wei Fang and Carlos.

Chu Zhifeng's appearance caused a deafening roar from the audience.

Many organized supporters waved glittering name tags and chanted his name in unison, along with the nickname "Blade Runner" that the Shattered Star Club had given him.

His performance was entirely worthy of his supporters' enthusiasm, and even impressed three veteran industry insiders.

"This is--"

Deep within the eyes of the three, crisscrossing arcs of silver light flashed.

The silver arc continued to split, quickly transforming into an impenetrable silver mist that was both offensive and defensive.

When the opponent was engulfed by the silver mist, dozens of shocking wounds were instantly cut into his body, and his guardian spirit was chopped to pieces. Only then did they see clearly that what was swirling around Chu Zhifeng were nine silver scimitars that were as thin as cicada wings, shaped like crescent moons, and almost translucent.

"This is the newly released combat card [Silver Moon Meteor] from 'Aurora Life'!"

Gu Xingzhou obtained the information: "This top-grade artifact spirit from the Second Era, besides possessing unparalleled attack power among bronze-level artifacts, has the most distinctive feature of being engraved with a fully automatic navigation rune array from the Fourth Era, which greatly reduces the difficulty of control. Even beginners who are not good at manipulating multiple cards can easily get started!"
"Moreover, multiple 'Silver Moon Meteor' spells can be stacked, increasing their power exponentially without consuming too much of the Spirit Master's computational power!"

"As we all know, Chu Zhifeng was once an outstanding practitioner of the no-card style. He only started learning the multi-card style two weeks ago, and today, he can skillfully manipulate three 'Silver Moon Meteor' cards to form an incomparably sharp Silver Moon Killing Array. This shows how much progress 'Zhendan Life' has made in the research and development of automated rune arrays!"

For commercial promotion purposes, the Spirit Alliance does not prohibit contestants from using any sealing cards issued by legitimate manufacturers in its various Spirit Control Tournaments.

The Spirit Master Competition is not only a stage for Spirit Masters to compete, but also an arena for major card manufacturing companies to showcase their strength.

Seeing Chu Zhifeng whistle past, tearing through the air and creating ripples, almost producing a sonic boom, the three veteran insiders immediately understood why the Shattered Star Club had gone to such lengths to snatch Chu Zhifeng, and where they got the strength to almost empty the Mad Iron Club with such an exorbitant price.

It turns out that they received support from Aurora Life, one of the four major card manufacturing companies.

Clearly, Aurora Life Sciences wants to launch a top-tier bronze combat card with "fully automatic navigation and user-friendly operation" as its selling point.

It would be far more appropriate to have a no-card-play expert like "Blade Runner" Chu Zhifeng as a spokesperson than to have a multi-card-play expert like "Golden Boy" Carlos as a spokesperson.

Even the well-known no-card master, after only half a month of exposure, was able to unleash "Silver Moon Meteor" into a mist of light that could tear everything apart.

Do we even need to mention normal multi-card flow practitioners?
"The competition among the Big Four is becoming increasingly fierce."

Through Chu Zhifeng's near-perfect transformation, Joe Foster saw something more.

In the past, the four major card manufacturing companies each mastered the secrets of the four eras, and each was far ahead of the others in their respective fields. They occasionally competed, but most of the time they maintained a relationship of mutual respect and non-interference.

However, as technology upgrades and the market becomes saturated, the company continues to expand and comes into contact with more and more echoing places from different eras.

The four major card manufacturing companies have gradually crossed their respective tracks and begun to touch the "absolute territory" that once belonged to their competitors. Deep Blue Technology, which started by developing the strange mechanical cards of the Fourth Era, has partially mastered the alchemy secrets of the martial arts civilization after successively excavating several echoing places of the Second Era. It then established Deep Blue Pharmaceuticals and entered the enhancement potion market, touching the sore spot of Cinnabar Life.

"Zhendan Life" is not holding back. In its latest martial arts card, "Silver Moon Meteor," it has applied a large number of fourth-era automated navigation technologies. It seems that if the market response is good, it is not impossible to launch a special mechanical card.

but……

Gu Xingzhou's eyes darted around.

As a senior card maker, he saw something more in Chu Zhifeng's exhilarating and dazzling performance.

Chu Zhifeng slowed down.

Compared to last year, his reaction speed and the power of his moves have decreased this year, and his breathing is also slightly disordered.

On the surface, it seems that in order to showcase the effect of "Silver Moon Meteor" to the fullest extent, he took a full minute to "calmly and unhurriedly" defeat his opponent.

But in the end, his steps became very slightly unsteady.

This reveals his true feelings, which are far from the relaxed demeanor he projected.

However, most viewers were so captivated by the dazzling silver arcs that they had no time to notice these fleeting details.

Only a professional like Gu Xingzhou could see even a hint of something amiss.

"It seems that 'Silver Moon Meteor' is still a work in progress. The weapon spirit of the martial arts civilization and the automated navigation system of the mechanical civilization are not so easy to perfectly integrate together."

"Therefore, it is necessary to have a powerful, cardless master like Chu Zhifeng to control it in order to achieve a perfect performance."

"If it were an ordinary practitioner of the Duoka style, their life force would probably be drained by the 'Silver Moon Meteor,' causing all sorts of problems, right?"

Gu Xingzhou crossed his arms and leaned comfortably back in his chair.

He did not directly point out the problems he had discovered.

After all, Liming Heavy Industry has many collaborations with the four major card manufacturing companies.

He himself also has many good friends in the Big Four companies.

Following past practice, he believed that his good friends would not be so foolish and stingy as to ignore this oversight.

Let's wait and see, as usual, whether his friends will come over tonight for a "good chat"!

Gu Xingzhou and Joe Foster exchanged a glance.

The two smiled slightly at the same time.

Female war correspondent Kelly Gracey stared wide-eyed, a look of confusion gradually appearing deep within her eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Why do I feel..."

"The player from the Kuangtie team has entered the arena!"

Gu Xingzhou interrupted her, "In the past half month, Kuangtie Club has encountered an unprecedented crisis. I wonder if they can still bring us new surprises with their once glorious no-card strategy?"
